Seamless stay. Everything we needed was there and the place was as described. Really nice bathroom, lots of towels, extra blankets, etc. and the kitchen has everything you need to make meals. We even used the grill on the deck.

Johnny was accommodating when I had trouble making the reservation on Airbnb. The home was warm and cozy. The pics are true to the place. The furnishings were comfortable. The neighborhood was active during the holiday weekend and everyone was friendly. I would stay again on my next visit to the area.

About the Host, Johnny

I am originally from North Carolina (yes, i still have my 'southern' accent even after 27 years living in San Francisco.

I am fine art and commercial photographer ((website hidden)),
and I have founded and run several 3 galleries in San Francisco ((website hidden)) and produced many art events to raise money for non-profits. I am also an artist coach and still maintain my connections to sell art by local artists.

I love traveling when time and finances permit. I've been to Egypt, Turkey, London, Paris, Germany, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Costa Rica, and Mexico. Hawaii of course if you live on the west coast ! I want to go to Asia or Peru next.....

I must have my coffee first thing in the morning and have been known to get coffee across the street....so that I can meet a friend for coffee later. I will eat pretty much anything unless it is really hot and spicy. I love red wine, wine tastings.....and who doesnt like margaritas. However, martini's at "The Top of the Mark" is what you drink there.
